Letting Go of Ego

Letting Go of our Ego

PL teaches > if we are always caught up with power,status and appearances, we will find it hard to accomplish anything of worth. We are encouraged to “Let Go” and express ourselves fully.
Gosh, “ego” can be so abstract. Often it isn’t till I am well into the fray that I discover my “ego” has helped land me there.

For fun I looked up “EGO” in the Concise Oxford English Dictionary, why not… it is very early in the a.m.  and i want to know what the academic definition is of EGO is, since i seem to have one of my very own.  Here we go. 1> a person’s  sense self esteem or self importance   (2 )psychoanalysis  the part of the mind that mediates between the conscious mind and the unconscious and is responsible for reality testing and a sense of personal identity. Compare with ID and Superego 3. philosophy (in metaphysics) a conscious thinking subject.

I just know you feel so much brighter and care free with this little tidbit of information tucked into your gray matter =^_^=….

Personally I think that    an “ego” is a very personal part of our “personality and character.  Certainly there are days when it can be very fragile, and other days when it is simply mulish.  Ego might be something to discuss with Rev. Eugene next time we are sitting down for a “visit”.  Consultations and visits with the ministers is very encouraged in the PL church.  When James H. Rutz (free lance writer) talks about the formality in churches and how the personal sharing and one on one has disappeared from many of the “today” churches, I’m happy to say that this is not the case with the PL Churches,   PL has a unique way of offering “Personal Guidance”

We believe strongly that happiness is built by establishing wishes and goals.  through consultations with a PL minister, you receive personal guidance tailored to your individual character and situation.  You can receive consultations from a PL minister for any kind of problem or situation.  Not only do PL Consultations help you solve problems, but through consultations, you can learn how to express your true self for the sake of society and for the sake of others,  

Our mission in PL is to create  World Peace, we believe we can do this by passing on from one person to another the teachings of PL

Letting Go of Your Ego Will Make You a Stronger Person.  Tall request… nah… put your mind to it and YOU CAN DO IT.

H A P P Y    F R I D A Y     everyone!  Enjoy your day whatever you are doing?  Make every second count !!

Love and blessings…… now and always

Live Each Day With Excitement

Live Each Day With Excitement

Challenge everything with enthusiasm. You will be rewarded with joy and encounter happy occurrences.
PL teaching day 5.
Remember when you first began to explore the storybook worlds of “Once upon a time” and “they lived happily ever after” Today after a lifetime of experiences,we know that these stories were not the realities of life. However, in each and every one of us, there still lives that bubble of delight for being enchanted and charmed.
In following the teachings of PL, and doing our very best to live in the moment, life does become happier and the enthusiasm for more is intoxicating. Blessings!

One man’s junk is another’s treasure

How often have we heard that?  I certainly lucked out the other day, while browsing a thrift shop with a friend, I saw a chair out of the corner of my eye that I really liked. Turned out, the chair was in mint condition, and for some reason, the shop was having a sale on furniture, it was reduced from $45. to $9;99. Now you know I was gonna have to make room.  All the cards fell into place, the car had been recently cleaned out so we could pack for our holiday.  The young man easily got it into the car (after checking that the sale price was right ).. it was.. and we now have a new chair.  So what is the big deal.  WELL…. in life, the idea is to unclutter, simplicity is really the best way to live an uncomplicated life.

I had previously said that anything new coming in, meant something should go /be recycled.  Since the new chair arrived, I have not parted with another piece of furniture.  I did pass along two side tables about a week ago to my niece, does that count? hmmmm somehow I think I should do more.  Last week-end I took about 5 pounds maybe more, of costume jewelry to a “thrift” show for recycling.  does that count?  What a dilemma.  I derive great pleasure looking at this chair.  No! although I find it very comfortable to sit in, VERY much so, it swivels and rocks, and this I don’t like.  I enjoy looking at the chair..

It is like found treasure, only another treasure hunter would understand. any one else out there that shares this “little’ idiosyncrasy?

We are leaving for a short holiday, I will not be in SL (second life) for awhile,  LOL this pictures shows my avatar chilling, you can see she is already in the mode for a vacation.  Now all I have to do is finishing packing, the chair unfortunately can’t come, wonder  if I will still be enthralled with it when I get back?   If you’d like more information on this outfit I’m wearing visit my fashion blog http://longdashstudio.blogspot.com
